VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – An Ocean Lakes High School student has been arrested for allegedly distributing child pornography of his female classmates.

According to court documents, the student had photos of at least eight female students on his cell phone.

"Eight? That's crazy," said Ocean Lakes junior Spencer Ransom. "Normally it is maybe one or something like that, because this is high school. Everybody's got something to talk about. But that is too much. That sounds like you could get in a lot of trouble for that."

Court documents show the investigation began in December 2015. The documents say the student allegedly admitted having nude photos of his classmates on his phone.
